Semantic definitions at the entity
Entity definition

The objectified relationship IfcRelDefinesByProperties defines the relationships between property set definitions and objects. Properties are aggregated in property sets. Property sets can be either directly assigned to occurrence objects using this relationship, or assigned to an object type and assigned via that type to occurrence objects.

The IfcRelDefinesByProperties is an N-to-N relationship, as it allows for the assignment of one or more property sets to one or more objects. Those objects then share the same property definition.

HISTORY  New entity in IFC2.0. Has been renamed from IfcRelAssignsProperties in IFC2x.
IFC4 CHANGE  The attribute RelatedObjects had been demoted from the supertype IfcRelDefines to IfcRelDefinesByProperties. This relationship has been modified to support multiple property sets referenced by a single relationship.
